I just discovered my massive bunch of stamps from like... 2004 that haven't been used! I'm ready for a penpal

Do we match ourselves up?

Ooh fabulous idea!

I used to have a penpal in Saudi Arabia... but then we kindof just drifted. :/ it was definetely the beset part of the month when her letter came

May I be put on the list? I'm from the US, and I LOVE to send and receive letters

I don't think my family understands my appreciation for MIKA :/

See, mum isn't too swayed towards falsettos like me... and pop doesn't like the fact that he was a 'loser' in school. Maybe because I totally was one until I got into high school and got into all sorts of trouble

A few weeks ago there was a commercial on ABC for some saturday night programs where at least 3 shows were advertised, at the end really quietly in the background while the voiceover was promoting you could hear

"I could be brown, I could be blue, I could be violet sky..."

I then rediscovered my inner MIKA fan.

... when you learned all your music theory and piano chords on MFC.

It's true, I just realized that today at my last paino lesson EVER. I realized my teacher never taught me theory or chords, only notation and the history.

Thank you all so much

:roftl: That's so me

 

I totally did that on the commute home from school today (say Raffa's part) XD It's because I don't realize I'm singing to a song when I have my earbuds in

Yeah, it had nothing to do with Lily, he just didn't want to get what he thought was a crappier slot so he told them to f off, but he didn't even know that it was Lily's, so his reaction had nothing to do with her .

Ah Lily, she's fabulous... her voice doesn't really match some of the melodies she makes though :\

I know he's friends with Lady Gaga; who I think is really original and actually can sing when you hear her acoutstic versions.

iMMa! She's amazing Great stage presence, voice so awesome!

I'll have to check her individual stuff out, thanks!

Sweet! I first heard od Owl City a year or two ago, when he came out with his album... -forgets name- it's like uh... 'Oh! June' or something. And I was like when I heard Hello Seattle

His new music definetely oozes total creativity, I'm not really a fan of synthopop-poppity-pop but Mr. Young seems to have caught me up with it

My favorite is Saltwater Room, that's how I discovered Breanne Duren, although I only like two of her songs...

Haha! My freinds and I were talking about that the other day, it is annoying... but I, having quite the attraction to male singers getting up to that fasletto (or close to it) makes me absolutely LOVE Adam Lambert

I must say I really, really miss his proper blogs. I totally enjoyed digging into the stuff he likes and discover new things - visually and acoustically. I like the fact that he took the time to write those little essays to share all that with the world. I hope that, one day he will rediscover his blog. If he does, I will start one, too

Oh me too! I just about passed out when he said he was a great fan of Alan Aldridge, a seattle-based visual artist and one of my favorite artists. I had no idea Mika knew of him!

I hope he picks it up again soon!

it's not fabolous - it is hilarious actually...

Hahaha, that's great! Really, American interviews should be just like that!

Oh la la! My goodness, I dunno how I'd feel if Mika read these

Love you guys!

second choice: Blue Eyes

third choice: By the Time

I love his versatility in music!

His eyes are both green and brown! Always been my fav! along with brown hair!

Ahaha, I've always love that too. And the fact that he's dyslexic, like me... only I CAN read music. I just can't seen to read letters or figures very well :/

Um, does anyone know if his french version of Grace Kelly is avaliable for download anywhere? Just wondering, I'm lacking in the foreign pop music secton of my mp3

Why do you think he likes Lily Allen? I'm pretty sure he doesn't care for her at all.

 

Lilly Allen! Catchy Catchy songwriter, she is:thumb_yello:

 

Absolutely love about a quarter of his musical choices... or I'm really familiar to them. I've never heard him sing Killer Queen, my goodness, he'd be fabulous!

 

 

Awesome list!

.... when you're supposed to be writing essays and doing homework for your overload of AP homework (OH! High School) but instead you dance to Grace Kelly for an hour.

Totally true, I just did that.

I love you guys

Ohmigosh, but he sooo has a butt and it's cute! More than me anyway

Ok here's the revised version.

I'm 99,9% sure of the lyrics, I changed the line he grammatically screwed up in Paris tho

The translation sucks cause I've tried to keep it as literal as possible, but some parts are just too hard to translate

I just hate it when English words aren't enough... or right. At all

Translating is really difficult, good job!

That. Is. So. Aaahmigosh. I think I just died.

Oh my god.

Do you know from what?

EDIT: Just saw on Brian's soapbox that it's smoke-related. Shame

 

R.I.P. Jim with Freddie in heaven

NO! Ooh my goodness mthat's terrible!

a january bus pass

AH! I've been looking for a thread like this!

I had one just last week, I was playing the piano... and for some reason, I was really frustrated, maybe because I was sight-reading and it sounded like crap.

Anyway, I was playing the piano and I look out the window, and there he is! With his band-buddies all carrying shopping bags.

I freak out and somehow grab my music (which in the dream-world turned into a my sketchbook) and ran outside. We all have a fabulous time looking at my weird thoughts and sketches... and then all of us are in my room, and we're posting stuf on HERE! MFC that is. Mika's laughing and laughing and then everything got really small and his band members start singing 'You're Having My Baby'. And ten I look down at my stomach and cover it up with my hands and say ' I don't want to talk out it, goodness'. Then I woke up.

Sorry for the wall of text.

Well, that's kindof hard to decide.

The first MIKA song I ever heard was either Grace Kelly or Lollipop... I think it must've been Grace Kelly because that one's pretty ace.

But my favorite must be Big Girl (You are beautiful) even though I'm not a big girl, it's the one I absolutely love to dance to, alone of course.

He is sooo the devil.

That, or I just like the fact that he's sitting on my left shoulder, you know.

Lily!!

 

Harry Potter or Twilight?

Harry Potter!

erasing or scribbling-out?
